Anotace knihy

This was the decade when Leicester finally lost its battle with the motor car, and its reputation as a clean smart redbrick city. Fighting back, the city fathers invented the Traffic Warden to try to solve the endless traffic jams in the city centre, and also came up with a major road development scheme which was to change the face of the urban landscape for all time, wiping whole neighbourhoods off the map. The Southfields underpass was ploughed through the heart of Roman Leicester, and the flyovers around the Central Ring - Burleys, St Matthew's Way and Belgrave - took shape. The decade saw the change from red brick to grey concrete as the first high-rise flats and office blocks were constructed, prompting major social changes in the way people lived and worked in a city environment. Occupying the ground floor of the very first multi-storey car park was Tesco, the first supermarket in the city, and the company's first store outside the London area.
